I have a form with 2 TextBoxes that I want to be able to save to a text document like C:Data.txt. When I save to the text document I want it to continuously save. For example it when you open the text file it should look something like this:
TextBox1
TextBox2
------------
TextBox1
TextBox2
Is it possible to do something like that? A separator is not necessary, would be nice to distinguish different saves.

I have a series of .DAT files I need to read into vb.net and then parse the data into a format that can be easily read into an SQL database that already exists. Would I be using a StreamReader object? Or is there a different way to go about this?

I've been developing a arcade game, and as every good arcade game, it has an incorporated scoreboard so that players can see who scored better. My problem is that everytime it enters a new scoreline, it deletes all the previous lines in the text file. The code I've been using is the following:
If player1 > 25 Then
objReader.Close()
MsgBox("O " + jogador1 + " ganhou.")[code]............

I have a very large text file about 4 million lines that I would like to separate into several small text files based on the strings contained in the first column of the text file. I want to open the large text file, choose the lines that apply, create a new text file with a name that has a number at the end of which will match up with the value in the first column of the text file. I want to then copy the applicable lines to the new small text file, save and close it. I'm not sure how to go about doing this after opening the large text file and using the readline method. What if the folder does not exist? Do we have to create it? I want this procedure to be general, as there could be up to 25 million lines in the text file.

What is the simplest way to check for an existing file. Every method shown to me in my text and the information gained from the Visual Studio help doesn't seem to work. Each one of them tells me the syntax is wrong. I just want a simple way to check for an existing text file that is in the defualt file location.MSDN told me to use FileSystem.FileExists(file) - VS would not take this and...My text Tony Gaddis (VB 2008) shows:
If File.Exists(FileName) Then
open file...
Else

I have to write data to an existing text file. I know it is possible to write to an existing file. But, my problem is I don't want to append the new data at the beginning or end of the file. I need to append the new data at the specified line.

I need to be able to display 60 * x. X is going to be the time between hitting a Stat button and a Stop button in seconds. I need this to be shown until it is stopped. So i was thinking something like txtBox1.text = 60*time, but I do not know if that is correct and I do not know how to get that time. Also I am not sure how to continuously update the text box.

How to modify a line in an existing text file in VB. This is the code I was told to use:
do while (sr.peek() <> -1)
line = sr.readLine()
if line(0) = stockName then
' update the line
updatedLine = line(0) & "," & line(1) & "," & line(2) &
else
' don't do anything
loop
The problem is that when I use that I get the error message that says:
Error1'Line' statements are no longer supported. File I/O functionality is available as 'Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileSystem.LineInput' and the graphics functionality is available as 'System.Drawing.Graphics.DrawLine'.

I'm using the following code to import data from a text file into an existing Access table:
Code:
Imports System.Data.OleDb
Public Class Carrega_CSV
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
[Code]....
The first time i ran the code, it caused no error but no records where loaded into the table. The second time it causes the OleDbException "Table 'TEMP' already exists." The text file is comma delimited and it has exactly the same number of columns of the TEMP table.

I'm using vb.net 1.1 to develop the program. I got text files that contain test result from a machine, like below.
T1 1.24535 2.56335 2.43253 1.24538 2.55619 4.35243
T2 1.42542 1.63728 3.57295 4.59275 1.57320 2.72057
T3 5.12857 2.45375 6.38593 2.58375 3.57259 3.57204
I need to check the test result with the data from database, to find out which test result is failed. If there is a fail test result, I will show an alert to the operator and stop the checking process. Until the operator close the alert, then the checking process will continue from the last read point.

I need to create a timer that sets the time from an existing text file. The time format in the text file is 00:00:00 (hours,minutes, seconds). An excerpt from one of my text files looks like ClockSet = "00:49:05"
Also, if possible, when the timer reaches 2 minutes I would like the backcolor to flash between red and green.

how to do this for vb6 however i am using vb 2008 and the code for vb6 does not seem to work.
I have designed a form with a text box on it, and a command button underneath. The idea is to run this as a sort of stiky notes section.
I want the text box to read rich text into the textbox (C:\\stickynotes.rtf")
Then i have a command button underneath which i want to save the content of the rich text box to the rtf file (C:\\stickynotes.rtf). This is so that the user can edit and ammend information.
here is some code i have so far
Dim fileReader As System.IO.StreamReader
fileReader = My.Computer.FileSystem.OpenTextFileReader("C:\\stickynotes.rtf")
